“Trent-Severn Waterway is a prominent landmark in Kawartha Lakes, ON. This historic landmark features a lift of 15 meters (49 ft), making it the second-largest water lift lock globally. The Trent-Severn Waterway traverses through lumber settlements and agricultural villages and showcases the stunning pre-Cambrian scenery of the Canadian Shield. The lock is at the highest point along the waterway, 256.20 meters (840.5 ft) above sea level. Visitors can explore the grounds surrounding the canal or climb to the top of the lift to observe its operation as it lowers or lifts boats along the waterway. Many boaters prefer to dock at the lower reach to avoid the stairs and efficiently access facilities.”
